Hi Product Hunt 👋 I make small Mac apps at tealmac. pinhole does screenshots and screen recording in one app, from one shortcut. Here is everything in it:
📸 Capture
• ⇧⌘1 opens one toolbar: area, window, fullscreen, scrolling, timer, text and recording or GIF. It remembers your last selection
• Crosshair and pixel loupe with coordinates and colour; nudge with arrow keys, hold Space to move, type an exact size
• Scrolling capture stitches a whole page into one image
• Timer (3, 5 or 10 s) for menus and hover states; desktop icons and widgets hide while you capture
✏️ Edit (17 tools, all editable until export)
• Arrows in four styles, boxes, ellipses, lines, a smoothed pencil, highlighter, seven text styles and numbered steps that count themselves
• Spotlight, magnifier callouts, stamps, colour picker and a pixel ruler
• Crop to 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 or freeform, resize, rotate, flip, or put two shots side by side
• Save as an editable .pinhole project; presets so a whole team's screenshots match
🔒 Smart Redact (only in pinhole)
• One click finds email addresses, phone and card numbers, IBANs, IP addresses and API keys and covers every one
• Text recognition runs on your Mac; secure blur, pixelate and solid bars are flattened on export so nobody can un-blur them
🎬 Record
• Area, window or screen as MP4 or GIF at up to 60 fps
• Microphone and computer audio, click highlights, keystroke overlay and a camera bubble
• Smart zoom follows your clicks; trim, change speed, export landscape, square or vertical
🎨 Polish and share
• Twenty backdrops, padding, rounded corners, shadow and a macOS or browser frame in one click
• Copy, drag into any app from the corner preview, or save PNG, JPEG, HEIC or PDF
• Pin any capture above every window, grab text and QR codes (OCR), and turn a run of captures into a numbered how-to (PDF or Markdown)
• A month of captures and recordings, searchable by the words inside them
1-day free trial, no card, no account. $6.99 once until 5 Nov 2026, then $9.99. 1 Mac, macOS 14+. What's the one screenshot feature you can't live without?
